Before you connect
- The API token of a monday.com admin.
- An owner or admin account in Northdeck.
Connect monday.com
- In Northdeck, open Data → Sources and choose monday.com.
- Sign in to monday.com as an admin, click your profile picture and choose Developers, then My access tokens.
- Copy the token and paste it in Northdeck.
- Click Connect monday.com. The first sync adds a module for projects and tasks.
Someone else holds the access? In Data → Sources, click Send an invite link: they fill in the key without a Northdeck account. The link is valid for 7 days and works once.
Keeping it up to date
Every hour Northdeck reads everything in monday.com again. Sync now does the same at once.
Troubleshoot
The message in Northdeck says what went wrong. These are the most common ones.
monday.com did not accept the API token.
Copy it again from Developers → My access tokens and connect again.
Paste the monday.com API token.
What was pasted does not look like a monday.com token. Copy the whole token.
monday.com asks us to slow down.
Wait a few minutes and try again.
Not everything was read.
A sync reads at most 20,000 items. The rows it did not reach stay as they were.
Good to know
- Northdeck reads the status, owner and deadline of each item. Other columns, such as numbers, text and links, are not copied.
- Archived and deleted items are left out.
